Myoptik :: Depth Of The Ventricoule (Móatún 7)
Flickering beats cascade as stretched drone textures unfold and fade, while Myoptik constructs a colossal, abstract sonic avalanche—complex yet as smooth as silk.
Deuter :: Mångata (Curve Blue)

Dött Ljus :: Bottna (Slowcraft)

Jimmy Peggie :: Dusted in Darkness (Self Released)
Texture is most certainly this album’s ambassador, but it’s not just experimentation with noise. There’s a lot of subtlety and continuity, both of which make […]
